Abstract

Local responses to irregular migrants vary widely. Some cities have formal policies regarding
irregular migrants and a specific budget allocation for related services. Others make adjustments that are less formal in approach or less coordinated within the agency. Still other cities have yet to develop an approach to the irregular migrant population. Based on data from the City Initiative on Migrants with Irregular Status in Europe (C-MISE) and primary and secondary data collected by MIrreM partners from Canada, Italy, the United Kingdom, the Netherlands and Poland, this working paper aims to provide an analysis Local level responses to address irregular migrants, including innovative practices where they have emerged and ongoing challenges in policy implementation.
